Today, impersonation, fraud, AI-driven scams, and identity abuse spread faster than any security team can respond to. So we built something different: an agentic AI platform that proactively detects, monitors, and takes down impersonators, automating protection in hours, not weeks. Built by ex-Palantir, ex-CTO/founders, and ex-Notion engineers, Outtake is designed for clarity, autonomy, and velocity. Our goal is ambitious: become the trust layer of the modern internet. And we intend to do it with a lean, dense, exceptionally talented team. Outtake is backed by top-tier investors and operators who believe in our mission and our model. With strong financial footing and a long runway, we prioritize creating an environment where people can do the best work of their careers. ## The Role This is a senior product design role. You will join as Outtake's third product designer, ramping quickly to independently own design for a product area, embedded in a product team, while also leading horizontal initiatives. Outtake is a decentralized, high-ownership org without a traditional PM role. You will work with product engineers and product deployment leads to identify opportunities, challenge assumptions, and decide what's worth building — shaping product direction, not just executing against it. This is a role for solving novel UX challenges. You will design how users manage fleets of autonomous agents, decide when to intervene, and investigate threats across layers of connected data — owning the experience end-to-end, from workflows and information architecture to the interactions and visual details that make it clear and usable. ## What You’ll Do - Work with product engineers and product deployment leads to identify opportunities, challenge assumptions, and decide what's worth building. - Design how users manage fleets of autonomous agents, decide when to intervene, and investigate threats across layers of connected data. - Own the experience from workflows and information architecture to the interactions and visual details that make it clear and usable. - Turn open questions into well-backed user insights and concrete design options and prototypes that align your team. - Find simpler ways to solve problems, make deliberate tradeoffs, and work closely with engineers to ship and improve the product. - Build direct relationships with customers, driving design partnerships and establishing regular channels for feedback. - Run research, test ideas, and gather the qualitative and quantitative evidence needed to make decisions and assess what you ship. - Create tools and practices that help designers, engineers, and product managers move faster and consistently ship well-designed products, including evolving our design system and expanding the use of AI in how we explore, prototype, and build. - As the design team grows, we expect this role to take on broader ownership over design culture and horizontal design initiatives at Outtake. ## What We're Looking For - 5+ years of product design experience, ideally at early-stage or high-growth companies where you've had to own outcomes end-to-end. - Comfort designing technically complex products, with the ability to get deep into a domain, solve unfamiliar UX problems, and make layered information clear and useful. - A deeply product-minded, user-driven (not user-led) approach, with genuine excitement to drive product strategy alongside Product Deployment and Product Engineering. - Resourcefulness and speed, with the judgment to know when to decide carefully and when to ship and iterate. - Low ego, with the ability to give and receive feedback openly without getting precious about your work. - Comfort working collaboratively while also navigating ambiguity and owning your work fully without hand-holding. - Excellent craft across interaction, visual, and motion design. - Nice to have: experience designing for AI, automation, or agent-based systems. - Nice to have: experience as an early design hire who helped shape design culture from the ground up. - Nice to have: active use of AI tools in your design workflow, with ongoing experimentation in how to leverage them. - Nice to have: experience creating and maintaining a design system. - Nice to have: a background in cybersecurity, trust & safety, or risk-related products. Life at Outtake - Office: For those in NY, we are an in-person team (5 days a week, with flexibility as needed) working out of a stunning waterfront office in Brooklyn. Collaboration, speed, and clarity matter. - Health: 100% company-paid medical, dental, and vision for employees. - Time Away: Flexible PTO. We trust adults to manage energy, not clock time. - Culture & Team: Annual company retreats and regular in-person events. Outtake is an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to building a diverse, inclusive team. ## About Outtake ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Outtake provides an autonomous AI agent platform that detects, investigates, and dismantles digital threats like impersonation, fraud, and AI-driven scams for enterprises. - **Entity Type**: Private (Series B) - **Headquarters**: Brooklyn, New York, United States - **Founded**: 2023 - **Founders**: Alex Dhillon ## Core Business - Primary industry/industries: Cybersecurity (Digital Risk Protection, Brand Protection, Threat Intelligence) - Target customers: B2B, Enterprise — including major AI labs (e.g., OpenAI), high-growth tech companies (e.g., AppLovin, CashApp), investment firms (e.g., Pershing Square), federal agencies, and luxury retail brands - Mission or purpose statement: “To empower and facilitate trust for a digital-first world” — building a “trust layer for the modern internet” ## Products & Services - **Digital Trust Platform**: SaaS platform using autonomous AI agents that see, hear, understand, and dismantle digital risk across every surface (web, social, dark web, app stores). - **Brand Protection**: Detects and removes fake domains, cloned apps, malicious ads, unauthorized resale, trial abuse, and token fraud. - **Executive Protection**: Identifies threats to executives including deepfakes, doxxing, extortion, venue targeting, and route exposure. - **Location Protection**: Monitors for coordinated protests, location targeting, and physical threats. - **Global Signal Network**: A proprietary Reservoir™ of signals that compound over time, making the platform smarter with every threat dismantled. ## Market Standing - **Valuation**: Not disclosed - **Total Funding**: $56.5M (Series B led by ICONIQ, as of January 2026) - **Key Metrics**: - ARR increased approximately **6x year-over-year** - Systems scanned **20 million potential cyberattacks** in the prior year - Enterprise customers grew **more than 10x year-over-year** - Average takedown time of **14.4 hours** from detection to takedown - **99.4%** takedown confirmation rate - **100%** network eradication rate - Monitors **100+ platforms**, marketplaces, and dark web sources - Social takedowns completed in under 24 hours - **Notable Investors/Partners**: ICONIQ (lead, Series B), CRV (seed & Series A), Section 32 (S32), angel investors including Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, Palantir CTO Shyam Sankar, Palo Alto Networks CEO Nikesh Arora, Anduril co-founder Trae Stephens, Bill Ackman, Guillermo Rauch, and Bob McGrew. ## Competitive Advantages - **Agentic AI vs. Legacy Tools**: Replaces slow, queue-based analyst workflows with autonomous agents that operate in parallel (millions of agents, zero queues, zero tickets). - **Compound Learning Platform**: The Global Signal Network gets sharper with every threat dismantled — meaning the platform becomes more effective for all customers over time. - **Speed**: 14 hours from detection to takedown (legacy tools can take 14 days or more). - **Named a Challenger** by analysts, alongside companies like Check Point, Doppel, and Recorded Future. - **Top-Tier Customer Base**: Works with the world’s most targeted organizations (OpenAI, AppLovin, Pershing Square), which validates the product against the most sophisticated threats. ## Strategic Focus - **Growth**: Scaling go-to-market teams, particularly in engineering and product, to meet explosive demand (ARR up 6x YoY). - **Product Expansion**: Deepening the autonomous agent platform to cover more attack surfaces and industries, with a goal of becoming the “trust layer” for the entire internet. - **Use of Funds**: The $40M Series B is earmarked for growing go-to-market, engineering, and product teams, as well as expanding the agent platform’s capabilities. ## Why Work Here - **High-Growth Trajectory**: 40 employees with 335.3% yearly headcount growth; 13 active job openings across engineering, sales, marketing, and legal. - **Cutting-Edge Mission**: Work on the forefront of AI-driven cybersecurity, building autonomous agents that fight the most advanced digital threats. - **Culture of Ownership and Speed**: The company prides itself on “zero queues, zero tickets” and constant next-step pursuit by agents — a philosophy that likely extends to the engineering culture. - **Team Quality**: Notable talent sources include Palantir, Meta, Oso, and Google.
